โœฆ Synopsis

In the early 1880s, a novel called Mr. Isaacs by Francis Marion Crawford set the publishing world on fire, rocketing to the top of the bestseller lists. Soon afterwards, Arlo Bates released Mr. Jacobs , a satirical send-up of that novel, riffing on the colonialism and naval-gazing of Mr. Isaacs.
